Let me start out by saying i have never been a fan of Wachusett Beers... but there i was last night at my favorite place to grab some beer and grub in Newport and the IPA list was pretty short. So, I ordered a Wachusett Larry somewhat hesitantly.. Before i even sipped this beer, i gave it a sniff and my eyebrows raised considerably.. wonderful pine and citrus smells wafting from the glass.. the taste... smooth and clean with awesome hop notes, a light mouth feel and because its an imperial Ale, an ABV around 8%.... i only needed 2 to feel a nice little Buzz.....
